PROPHETIC FORECAST FOR 1895-6-7. - ♦ (Christian Herald and S : gns of Our Times, Jan. 10, 1895.)

Tho following advertisement, which ap-« peared on Now Yoar's Day, 1895, m the second column of the front page of the Standard, Daily News, Daily Chronicle, Morning Post, and tho back page of the Daily Telegraph, of London, and in the Glasgow Herald, Scotsman, Newcastle Chronicle, Leeds Mercury, Manchester Guardian, Bristol Western Press, Plymouth Western News, exprosses the view which Daniel's prophecies lead us to adopt regarding tho immediate future : 1 QQ^ MAY BE A YEAR of com_LO*/0 parative peaco, but it is doubtful whether 1896 will be so, and it seems certain that 1897 will bo a year of European war or revolution, becauso 1898 is indicated by Daniel's dates to be the year of the comnlelecl form \ tion of the Tenhorned Wildbeast in Daniel vii. 24, in other words, of the Allied Confederacy of Ten Kingdoms, France, Britaiu (probably acfarateu from Ireland and ita Colonies), Spain, Italy, Austria, Greece, Egypt, Syrit, Turkey, and tho Balkan States, together probably with Hunpary. These Ten Kingdoms will incorporate with themselves the remaining thirteen Kingdoms or t-tates which, together with the Ten, now constitute the countries of Caesar's Koman Empire, symbolised by tho Tenhorned Wildbeast. HENCK FRANCE WILL IN 1897-8 ANNEX territories west of the Rhine, viz , Belgium, Luxemburg, Rhenish, Prussia, Switzerland, and south of the Roman Wall, viz., Baden, Wuitemburg and Southern Bavaria. To Spain will be added Portugal and perhaps Morocco ; and to Italy, probably Tripoli; then Roumania, Bulgaria, Scrvia, and perhaps Montenegro will bo united together with Hungary separated from Austria. All these changes will bo completed during 1897 and 1898. Then a Napoleon will arise as tho Littlo Horn or Ruler of Daniel vii. 24, und viii. 9, over a little L'astcrn State like Macedonia about 1899, and will become King of Syria by 1901, and will make a aeven years' Covenant with tho Jews from Passover, 1901, to Passover, 1908 (Daniel ix. 27), and during tho latter 3£ years, from 1904 to 1908, will be tho Antichrist and Emperor over these 'Jen Kingdoms, and will perish at Christ's desceni ot tho battle of Armageddon in TasßOver Week, 1908. The following advertisement also appeared similarly in four of those fiistnamed London nowßpipers on Christmas Day, December 25, 1894 :

CHRISTMAS NINK VICARS HENCE \j will be a day of lamentation and mourning and woe becauso in December, 1903, iSdtnn will be cost down from the air on to this eaith and tho cry raised, " Woo to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea for tho Devil has come down unto you, having grcut wrath, knowing that ho hatli but a short time " At the same time the .Second Seal will bo opened, and •• the Red Horso of Wa r will go forth, and pcaco bo taken fnin the earth, and people will everywhere kill one another ;" and tho Tenhoincd Wildbcnat representing tho Ten Kingdoms of Kuropo (including Britain) will become scarlet, ie, Kcdrcpublican, aa foreshown in Revelation xii. 12, 13 ; vi. 4 ; xvli. 3. Then after several months of sanguinary wars, Napoleon tho Antichrist will leign as Emperor ovor tho Ten Kings of tho Ten Kingdoms for three and a half years, but will perish at Christ's descent at tha battlo of Armageddon in Passover Week, 1908. (Sec Daniel vii. ; Rev. xiii. and xix.) The Translation of 144,000 living Chris. Uans to heaven without dying will tako place previously about March 12, 1903.

The Nottingham Guardian of December 31, 1894, said : •• Last night the Rev. M. Baxter, the 'Prophet,' concluded a series of lectures delivered in the lectureroom at tho Mechanics' Institute yester* day and tho previous Sunday. It is about four years since his last visit to tho town, and ho had yesterday, as on that occasion, large audiences. Mr Baxter's utterances, wlr'ch contained many references to Scripture, and particularly the writings of Daniel and the Revelation, sought to establish tho fact that tho year 1908 will end the present ago. The lecturer gavo a vivid description of tho democratic chaos foretold to mark the reign of Napoleon the Antichrist, to be brought to a closo on April 23rd, 1908, by tho destruction of the Antichrist, and tho entrance of tho millennium. The Rev. Walter Maoors also gavo addresses."

Poison plays an important part in sociil relations in tho Punjab, judging from an official report which, for the ye'ir 1893, gives a total of 498 cases of homicide by poison, and 238 cisos of tho poisoning of cattlo. Opium is the favorite moans of suicide. When it is a question of killing someone else, arsenic and datura are tho preferred agents. For cattlo, arsenic and tho poisoning seeds of a plant nro employed, but arsenic is tha more popular.
